Tabs, Fields, Sections, and Grid Rows

The Work Order Mass Update form includes the same tabs as the Work Order Mass Update Template program. Values that you entered in the template appear in the Work Order Mass Update form for supported fields if you did not hide the tab on which the fields appear in the template. Additionally, two informational sections on the form enable you to determine the template used and the number of records selected.

This table describes the tabs, sections, and values that appear on the Work Order Mass Update form.

Form Attribute

Description

Tabs

The form includes tabs with groupings of fields in which you can enter new values to use to update the selected work orders. The tabs on the form are:

  • Planning

  • People

  • Order Detail

  • Cat Codes

  • Classification

  • Accounting

If you are using a template and the template is set up to hide a tab, the tab does not appear in the Work Order Mass Update form.

Work order update fields

You can enter values to use for mass updates if the field is enabled on the displayed tabs. Fields are disabled if changes to the field are not supported for the work order type or the fields were locked in the template used. The values that you enter are applied to all selected work orders that pass validation.

See Unsupported Fields by Work Order Typefor information about fields that are not supported for each work order type.

If you are using a template, default values from the template, if any, appear in the fields on the Work Order Mass Update form, unless the tab on which the fields reside is hidden. If the fields are locked in the template, the fields are disabled and you cannot change the values. However, the values for the locked fields are used in the update process, unless the locked fields are blank. The values that appear on the form are applied to all selected work orders that pass validation. SeeErrors and Warnings

You cannot use the Work Order Mass Update program to update a field to "blank". The program does not change the value in the selected work orders for fields that are blank.

For equipment and service work orders, additional fields for status change are available if the version of the Work Order Revisions program that you specify in the processing options of the Search for Work Orders program enables changes to the fields.

Informational sections

The form includes these informational sections:

  • Template Applied

    This section displays the name of the template that is applied to the selected records. You specify the template to apply in the Template Name processing option.

  • Current # of Selected Records

    This section shows the number of selected records. The number increases and decreases as you select and deselect records.

Grid rows

When you access the Work Order Mass Update form, the system populates the grid rows with the work orders that you selected on the Search for Work Orders form. You can deselect rows, but you cannot add additional rows.

The grid includes a field to display errors and warnings. The system populates this field for work orders that result in an error or warning when you click the Display Draft Exceptions button to populate the Errors/Warnings Issued field in the grid. You must click the Draft Update button to populate the work table before you click the Display Draft Exceptions button. See Errors and Warnings
